Property Manager Builds Orphanage in Sierra Leone

Warwick Estates have invested over £100,000 in Sierra Leone over the last 2 years.

Managing Director Craig Stevens talks enthusiastically about the new project. “When we first found out about the Mahanaim orphanage there were about 12 children being looked after by a remarkable lady called Melrose. Melrose herself is in a wheelchair. To my dismay there are now over 30 children under her care and the existing orphanage has 2 bedrooms and woeful facilities.”

Non-Executive Director Mark Green is pleased that the project is underway. “One of my roles at Warwick Estates is to help build a corporate and social responsibility initiative. A project like this is great for a medium sized business as you can gain a real sense of achievement and ownership. This project allows staff to see the effect their efforts have on the lives of these children.”

Warwick’s staff are encouraged to travel to Sierra Leone and help with the build project.
